Ground Activity Monitoring

Monitoring for Pipelines, Pigging and Mining Sites

HERTZINNO combines ground vibration sensing, edge processing, visual verification and remote communications to identify unauthorized excavation, confirm pig passage at selected monitoring points, and detect abnormal mining activity in remote areas.

Applications

Three focused monitoring applications

The same field node and platform can be configured for different event models and deployment conditions.

Oil & Gas Pipeline Networks

Monitor critical right-of-way sections for excavation, heavy vehicles and other ground activity that may threaten buried pipelines.

Pipeline Pigging Support

Detect characteristic vibration when a cleaning pig passes a monitoring point to support timing and progress confirmation.

Illegal Mining Detection

Detect vibration from excavators, drilling rigs, breakers and heavy vehicles around mine boundaries and protected areas.

How It Works

From field vibration to a verified event

The buried vibration sensor is installed in the soil near the monitored area. It does not clamp to or connect directly with the pipeline wall.

01

Sense

Continuous low-frequency vibration acquisition from the surrounding ground.

02

Classify

On-device processing separates target events from routine background activity.

03

Verify

Dual cameras capture site images or video after a relevant event is detected.

04

Report

Event time, node status, location and visual evidence are sent to the remote platform.

System Architecture

A practical four-layer system

The solution can operate as a standalone deployment or connect with an existing control center, SCADA, DAS or third-party platform.

01

Field Sensing

Ground vibration sensor, dual cameras, solar supply and battery.

02

Edge Processing

MCU + ARM architecture running Linux for local event processing.

03

Communication & Positioning

4G communications with BeiDou/GPS location information.

04

Platform Access

Web, control center and mobile access for events and device status.

Deployment

Node spacing follows risk, not a fixed interval

Remote low-population areas may use wider spacing, while road crossings, construction zones and other high-risk locations require closer placement.

Single Point

Critical Location

For crossings, known construction points, pig passage checkpoints or mine-boundary entrances.

Distributed Section

High-Risk Corridor

Multiple nodes across a defined section, managed through one platform.

Integrated System

Long-Distance Network

Combine HZ-PS-20A with existing DAS, video, SCADA or enterprise systems.
